It is funny you should say something about your shoulders and its connection to the lower back muscle ache. I had a call in to the PT who worked with me in the pool. It took this long for her to return my call.
When I described what I had done by "hanging" with the dumbbells under my arms, she said that my shoulders probably tensed up and the reaction is the muscles all the way down tensed. I had hung for 5 minutes. Not only, did I hang but, by watching the clock, I had pinched my neck to look up.
I have been taking Ibuprofen and I am doing much better. I have not been back to the pool but have been doing my Svaroopa yoga poses to relax my back.
For those of you still having a problem, perhaps exercises relaxing the shoulders would help.
I hope you feel better.
